Default Having trouble putting Featured Listings on my Home Page

It's in my sidebar and working fine but I want to move it into the Home Page (Content Page). Whatever I try simply displays the code - not the listings.

I want to replace the image (highlighted red) with my vertical featured listings. Am I missing something obvious?

Code:
<div>
<table id="table1" border="0" cellspacing="10" cellpadding="0" width="100%">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td width="65%">
<p><img src="http://www.mkclassifieds.co.uk/templates/extended/images/welcome4.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="100" height="100" align="left" /><strong>We're almost ready!</strong></p>
<p>We need to dust in the corners and get the place spick and span for you! While we're testing the site please feel free to post as many ad's as you like. Ignore the prices and just enter the code <span style="color: #ff0000;">freebie</span> at the checkout. We'd especially welcome your input and suggestions for making the site as useful as possible.</p>
<p>Get in touch with us at <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a></p>
</td>
<td width="1%"></td>
<td style="text-align: center;" width="34%"><img src="http://www.mkclassifieds.co.uk/images/31588.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="200" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="65%">1</td>
<td width="1%"></td>
<td width="34%">3</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="65%">2</td>
<td width="1%"></td>
<td width="34%">4</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>

Hi Eric. This is what I'm trying to add in;

{feature_listings_horizontal number=10 cols=1 table_attr='width="100%" cellpadding="14" cellspacing="0"' td_attr='valign="middle" align="center"' style="border-top: 0px dashed #999;"'}

Since you are wanting it vertical why not use this instead:
{feature_listings_vertical number=10 table_attr.....

Fair enough Eric. But I've tried several ways including Seymor James' plugin at http://www.68classifieds.com/forums/...s-styling.html

In each case it is just the code that is displayed. Feel like a right dumbass, I just know it's going to be something simple . . .

Are you adding it in a wysiwyg editor? Is so try using a text editor or html view to add it.

Nope, no wysiwyg. Just html view in the page editor.

Well then I guess I am running short of ideas. Is it possible to post a link to see it?

Are you adding this code via the 68C admin for the home page? If so that info is stored in the database and wont be parsed as code and thats why its not working. You will need to actually edit the template file itself you want it to appear it.
